Chairman Avi Dichter of the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee said, Tuesday, that he intends to tour the Southern Hevron Hills area with the committee in light of the difficult security situation there.
Interviewed by Arutz Sheva following condolence calls to the Mark family in Otniel and the Ariel family in Kiryat Arba', he said the scope of the recent attacks requires that the committee have its hands on the pulse of the area vis-a-vis security forces and local authorities, not only regarding attacks in the area, but also regarding area terrorists who crossed the 1949 Armistice Line to carry out their attacks.
